So that' a bug Apple need to fixed on iOS 6. Right? Nothing is prefect. But if apple really recommends restarting ipad once a month, as you said, LOL, i think i restart it almost everyday... LOL

All computers accumulate errors as they run. Good operating systems running a few solid apps can run for months or even years. Servers do this and stay up for months, or even years. However, the more apps you run, the less solid the apps, and the more you use them, the quicker the errors accumulate.

I month is about right for light to moderate use of an iPad with well written apps, which is why Apple also says 'as needed'.

I restart mine about once a week, if I think of it. Sooner if I think the performance is lacking or apps start crashing more often than usual.

It's really not any different than owning any other computer. Sometimes they just have to be restarted.
